QUOTE(-YS- @ Jun 5 2008, 01:52 PM) So guys, anyway to make our car more economic? Control your riht foot is the cheapest method. Change air filter? Change engine oil to Fully Synthetic? any other way?  QUOTE(ron4 @ Jun 5 2008, 02:00 PM) Use public transport like lrt, stop using a car at all, then we all can save a lot hehe I use bike when going to nearby groceries shop. Less going back home during lunch hour. Less revving. (donno how long my determination can last). Sorry just kidding  QUOTE(zenwarlord @ Jun 5 2008, 02:02 PM) change car.... To what?  |

QUOTE(Safe Driver @ Jun 6 2008, 11:07 AM) i thought there are not supposed to be any road blocks in highway tolls any more?? read it somewhere.. cant really put my finger on it... but i'm pretty sure police are not allowed to block in highways anymore.. something to do with lorries banging through their blocks My friend accidentally do 180 spin due to the block in the middle of the highway. Its a downhill slope with right bending coners. He's speeding btw. Luckily, no one (and cars) hurt |

QUOTE(lordragos @ Jun 6 2008, 12:46 PM) I'm in Johor... and using 2nd hand BSA rim.. the car "feel" a bit lighter and cornering improved as compare before. price not confirmed yet since I only testing it until weekend but the guy said surely below RM1,000 after trade in.. I don't think it is a good idea to use larger size rim at the back for FF cars (assuming both front and rear use the same series tyre) because it will make it easier to ose control of the rear (higher). Even my friend Skyline GT-T uses a smaller rim at the rear although it has AWD system to make the car more stable at high speed cornering (less ovesteer). Not everyone can test ler.. I've been their customer more than 5 years and now the boss quite well |

QUOTE(lordragos @ Jun 6 2008, 04:47 PM) I'm using Hankook Ventus V8 RS tyres but the the tyre series is different rear is 205/45/17 and front is 245/50/16 (I need to check as I can't recall, I noted it down but don't know where I put my notepad I think your setup is very weird. The front tyre width is larger than rear... wouldn't it look funny?  ) I've tested in a road similar like in Genting which has a lot of sharp corners before and after changing the tires so far the new setting is good compare to the old tires...  or maybe it's just psychological err.. you want to test drive? |

QUOTE(eastwest @ Jun 8 2008, 10:28 PM) Why does proton claim that the max speed for both at and mt car are 196km/h? how can they archieve that speed?

It kinda cool watching the digital speedometer while driving. First, tomorrow got appt with Dr Kereta to 'try' to iron out the 'sounds' coming from my Waja. Then only i can start looking for extra 'goodies' for my car. |

QUOTE(futobuta @ Jun 8 2008, 11:19 PM) CPS engine is quite powerful lah. Never imagined it to be I'm still waiting for SIC open day. like this. It is always so tempting to press the gas pedal a little bit more but iph roads just don't permit such driving habits. sigh..... Although fuel is RM2.70 now, must go and try at least once. |

QUOTE(eastwest @ Jun 9 2008, 12:24 AM) anyone drive before waja 1.8? how does it compare to waja cps? fc, handling, feeling When I change my suspension to R3, the mechanics took my car for a drive after doing the alignment. He then said that 'this' 1.8 Waja spare part is hard to come by and expensive. Then I told him that this is CPS 1.6, not 1.8 (Renault) and he is really surprised. Maybe there is not much difference between these two. , power train, transmission? |

QUOTE(eastwest @ Jun 9 2008, 12:35 AM) OOO, like that aaa Use adjustable cam pulley (not crank pulley) and set it to retard (if I'm not mistaken BTW, is it possible to make our engine to archive max torque(or any certain percentage) at lower rpm? Just asking, becoz i'm still noob about car ) to increase the pick-up but you'll loose top speed. Anyway, standard setup is already the optimal, well balance setting. |

QUOTE(eastwest @ Jun 9 2008, 12:42 AM) Looks like the R3 fella doesnt know about cps I've installed those suspension at outside workshop. . So, he means the car got the same power as 1.8 ? If we extract more power from our car(exhaust thing), means higher fc?I see. thanks 4 the info |

QUOTE(Safe Driver @ Jun 9 2008, 10:22 AM) oh... i'm looking at the R3 suspension.... spiroth care to recommend??? how bout the stabilizer bars... should i put the anti roll coupled with the suspension one?? Worth it fro RM600 suspension upgrade. No need stabilizer bar, just the suspension is good enough already. QUOTE(Safe Driver @ Jun 9 2008, 10:25 AM) oh... btw.. here's the pic of it... seller claims it's a US product.. not some cap cina product haha... Why people always think that US product = quality? I think it is wrong to generalized it that way. [attachmentid=492814]  |

QUOTE(Safe Driver @ Jun 9 2008, 10:25 AM) oh... btw.. here's the pic of it... seller claims it's a US product.. not some cap cina product haha... Theoretically it can works to improve low end torque, but donno by how much. The question is whether spending RM500 is worth it for the improvement gains. But the seller is giving free trial, so can test 1st and then decide.[attachmentid=492814] QUOTE(khtee @ Jun 9 2008, 12:30 PM) Anyone can provide a comparison between WAJA CAMPRO CPS against Toyota VIOS and Honda CITY? How much is the difference in fuel consumption? Any idea?.... Fuel price increase..... heard CAMPRO CPS consumes alot of petrol compared to those cars... is it? 16cent/km to 18cent/km (old price). Check with Vios thread for its FC.Added on June 9, 2008, 1:07 pm QUOTE(yinho @ Jun 9 2008, 01:02 PM) no need to compare, campro definitely consume more than japanese makers. if you want a fuel efficient car, just get either vios or city. Agreed, but need to calculate also how long to get the ROI as the price differ bout RM20k. This post has been edited by sphiroth: Jun 9 2008, 01:07 PM |

QUOTE(yinho @ Jun 9 2008, 03:21 PM) ROI also need to consider the depreciation of car value, toyota and honda branding by itself already helps to hold the second hand price of the car. I never think of a car as an invesment, that include selling to get profit (depreciation). and the end of the day, ill just get a car that i like and live with it. Anyway, with rising of fuel price, 2nd hand car market will also be effected, just don't know by how much. |
